If this chemical gets into the eyes, remove any
contact lenses at once and irrigate immediately for at least
15 minutes, occasionally lifting upper and lower lids. Seek
medical attention immediately. If this chemical contacts the
skin, remove contaminated clothing and wash immediately
with soap and water. Seek medical attention immediately.
If this chemical has been inhaled, remove from exposure,
begin rescue breathing (using universal precautions, includ ing resuscitation mask) if breathing has stopped and CPR if
heart action has stopped. Transfer promptly to a medical
facility. When this chemical has been swallowed, get medi cal attention. Give large quantities of water and induce
vomiting. Do not make an unconscious person vomit.
| [Chemical Properties]
Ferrous ammonium sulfate hexahydrate is pale blue-green solid
| [Chemical Properties]
Ferrous ammonium sulfate is a pale green or
blue-green solid (powder or lumpy crystals). | [Uses]
Ammonium iron(II) sulfate hydrate is widely utilized in analytical chemistry for titration purposes since it is affected lesser by oxygen in the air than iron(II) sulpahte. It is employed to measure high doses of gamma rays by using Fricke's dosemeter. It is involved in a variety of other applications from nanomaterials to general redox reactions. It is used in the medical field as an antianemic agent for treatment of iron deficiency. | [Uses]
Used as analytical standard. | [Definition]
ChEBI: A hydrate that is the hexahydrate form of ferrous ammonium sulfate. Acts as an iron ion donor for building Fe-S clusters in vitro. | [Purification Methods]
A solution in warm water (0.67g/mL) is cooled rapidly to 0o, and the resulting light bluish-green monoclinic crystals are filtered at the pump, washed with cold distilled water and pressed between sheets of filter paper to dry it. The solubility at 25o is 0.36g/mL. It separates as an almost white powder when a saturated aqueous solution is diluted with EtOH. |
